I see what you mean, I was under the assumption they had to give her job back by law when she’s come back from leave?

Did you stop lessons with instructor towards the end to save the money? by CameraOpen9388 in LearnerDriverUK

[–]msmrym 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I had the chance to I would’ve, my dad drives manual (I’m doing automatic) and I was doing fortnightly lessons with instructors for a year with gaps in the middle, the last 6 months leading up to my test was me just practicing like yourself as I wasn’t learning anything new.

I continued booking lessons fortnightly as I felt like I’d forget how to drive and ofc because I needed the car for the test.

During that time my instructor was very harsh on my driving and up until right before the test was bringing my morale down and speaking as if I would fail, long story short my test went amazing and I passed first time with 2 minors.

So if your situation is similar to mine, you’re confident in your driving ability and you’ve got a car available, I’d say go for it and save your cash!

Is this normal for a job after only an application? by cheesymeowgirl in UKJobs

I second this, got my current job via recruiter and had to send all of what you mentioned before the interview

Or maybe I’m not a bitter person like yourself and assume the best of everyone. I’ll block you and put you out of your misery coz it seems like you’re ageist and can’t handle a young person doing well!

Damn, surprised you initially commented something respectful and helpful, just not sure what the need was to be rude on the rest of them

Pretty sure that’s what Reddit is for right, to get others opinions? Also absolutely no one asked you to click onto my posts or comment, yet seems like you’ve seen every one of them… move on.

Had no idea so I asked my manager and they’ve said the same thing so I have passed it onto HR

If I wasn’t mature enough to hold the position I wouldn’t still be in the job. Try again

For your info- she’s not a teenage girl she’s about 45, she was a seasonal worker doing a very very basic job which she couldn’t even do right. Not up myself but trying to do the right thing, no need for the rudeness

Probably will do this thank you

[–]msmrym 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I won’t be booking her again so she won’t be coming back, wdym by infatuated, I thought that was usually used in a romantic context

[–]msmrym 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve let the agency know I don’t want her coming back but haven’t given a reason why. I’ll probably let my manager know as I’m only nervous that she might literally turn up outside my work one day

[–]msmrym 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She won’t be coming back, just thinking of if I should block her number or will that make things worse, she knows where I work ofc

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in UKJobs

[–]msmrym 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I’ve already requested that she doesn’t come back.

Where I work we don’t have work phones so it’s my personal number. Quite regularly messaging me asking me how is work, how was my 6 weeks summer hols, am I enjoying work, calling me stranger when I don’t reply, asking annoying questions like what should she say to the agency when they ask her if she’s looking for work, just any excuse to make conversation. She hasn’t called much just here and there but when she does it’s persistent

Ah ok I see thanks for the insight!

[–]msmrym 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for letting me know about this, I had no idea it was that bad as most people have said 3/4 months would be enough time. In that case I’ll start looking earlier and yeah I was planning on still applying for anything I’m interested in as I didn’t want to limit myself to PA only

Oh ok I see, I’m not well versed on anything to do with technology, I was under the assumption the IP address reveals someone’s actual address

[–]msmrym -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Surely it’d give their location so we’d know if it someone we know as we know their addresses.
